SD, just wanted you to know I haven't forgotten what you've asked me to do, downloading Security Check. We've had a serious illness in the FAMILY and I will do it as soon as I have time. I was on computer checking email and thought I'd let you know that I know I still need to do this. I'll get back with you. Thanks!
I understand. Family comes first. Here's HOPING everything works out ok.Here you are SD:

Do I leave SuperAntivirus, Anti-Malware, ccsetup227 and CCleaner on computer? Or delete or uninstall where necessary? Thanks for all your help.
Hello Debby. I hope everything is well with you and your family. At the present time you have F-Secure as your AV program. If you want to dump this, you will have to install another AV program. I'll attach a list of free AV's you can DOWNLOAD and install. You are using Windows Firewall which is not very good. Attached you will find a list of free third-party Firewalls. Only install one. The problem with Windows firewall is that it doesn't block out-going traffic which can be very harmful. ie; malacious programs reporting back to homebase with your passwords and banking information. SAS(SuperAntiSpyware) and MBAM (Malwarebytes Anti-malware) are not full-time scanners. You have to run the scans yourself. About once a week should be ok. Make sure to update them before running the scans. Java and Adobe have to be kept up-to-date in order to be effective. SpywareBlaster and Spybot S&D are really good programs to have as well as Windows Defender. You can uninstall Ccleaner and ccsetup227.

Remember to only install one antivirus!

1) Avast! Home Edition
2) AVG Free Edition
3) Avira AntiVir Personal
4) Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows Vista\Windows 7 - 64 bit Download
4-a) Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows XP
5) Comodo Antivirus (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" if you choose this one)
6) PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition

It is strongly recommended that you run only one antivirus program at a time. Having more than one antivirus program active in memory uses additional resources and can result in program conflicts and false virus alerts. If you choose to install more than one antivirus program on your computer, then only one of them should be active in memory at a time.

Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders. You need to download a free firewall from one of these reliable vendors.

Remember only install ONE firewall

1) Comodo Personal Firewall (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and uncheck any HopSurf and/or Ask.com options if you choose this one)
2) Online Armor
3) Agnitum Outpost
4) PC Tools Firewall Plus

If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it is not recommended as it does not block outgoing connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a mediocre firewall. This firewall is NO replacement for a dedicated software solution. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time.Thanks, SD. Since I have paid for F-Secure, I guess I'll keep it until it runs out and then go for the free ones. I don't see where it has a Firewall, it has something called Deep Guard, not sure what that is but will look into it. Otherwise, I will download one of the Firewalls you recommended.

Family SITUATION better. Thought we were going to lose my 90-year-old mother-in-law but it seems she is getting better. It all started with a fall where she broke her right arm (thank goodness she is left-handed) and they couldn't put it in a cast because of the type of break, and they didn't want to operate on a 90-year-old, then she got sicker and sicker, talking crazy, blood pressure up, down, everywhere, and come to find out not only did she have a kidney infection they weren't treating her for, they were not giving her the daily requirement of pills for Addison's disease (has to do with the adrenalin glands and an episode such as the one she had is life threatening). She is a rehab place for next 2 weeks, but we know she's feeling better as she's asking for some of her personal things be brought to her. I don't know that I want to live to 90, but she makes it look good - grocery shops, cooks, cleans a little - except for that Addison's she'd be fine.

I sincerely thank you again for your help SD. I sure couldn't have done it without you!
